1. A method for transmitting temporally successive datasets of a position sensor via an Ethernet network, wherein a respective dataset of the position sensor consists of a maximum of 4 bits, the method comprising:
continuous reading, by a reference component connected to the Ethernet network, of the datasets of the position sensor which are to be transmitted; and
continuous writing, by the reference component, of a respective dataset to a 4-bit transmit register of a Media Independent Interface of the reference component.
